Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add garlic and stir-fry a few seconds. Add shrimp and cook until heated through. Stir in fish sauce mixture. Add eggs. Stir until lightly set and scrambled. Add noodles and 2/3 of the bean sprouts.

Turn mixture onto a serving platter. Sprinkle with peanuts, remaining sprouts, cilantro and green onions. Arrange lime slices around the edge of the platter and serve.
